The Graduate Program in Biomedical Engineering (BME) at the University of Manitoba is a graduate program offering degree opportunities to achieve degrees in MSc, PhD, and/or MD-PhD BME is a multidisciplinary program conducting research among three faculties: Engineering, Medicine, and Science.
We are currently conducting research in the areas of medical instrumentation and sensors, biological signal processing, biomedical image processing and reconstruction, gait analysis and rehabilitation, biophotonics, orthopaedic mechanics, neurocognitive science, non-invasive diagnosis of neurological disorders, etc.
We welcome applications to the Graduate Program in Biomedical Engineering.
Biomedical Engineering students can access opportunities, supports and resources from the Biomedical Engineering program, the Price Faculty of Engineering, the Faculty of Graduate Studies and UM.
Volunteer research participants are critical to any treatment development or research. The Volunteer research participant's comments, reactions, statements and observations guide us in modifying and developing treatments and tests, and to better understand the needs of the volunteer research participant's community. You can make a difference and help shape the care and treatment of those in you community by volunteering!

Electrovestibulography (EVestG) technology has been applied towards diagnosis of and separation of Parkinson disease (PD) / Schizophrenia / Depression (Unipolar vrs Bipolar) / Meniere's Disease / Controls [6-19]. Sensitivities and specificities so far have been typically above 85%. EVestG is used as an objective technique for analyzing brain signals to detect neurological and mood disorders compared to healthy brain signals.
We need healthy volunteers, 60 year of age or older, to examine the accuracy of results.
